I love to wear Hatch when I'm not pregnant, but now that I am expecting of course I love dressing in their fashionable clothes! So many of their styles appeal to me. Relaxed and timeless pieces that can be dressed up or down and work for so many occasions. The collection is fashionable but also timeless, ...

As I've written before, I am a big fan of the Boob maternity and nursing products. Their basics are my favourite: I wear the Boob nursing bras daily as well as my merino wool nursing singlet, and I've even discovered the nursing sports bras, which I also love (I'm wearing one as I type, in ...

Aside from making beautiful, vintage-inspired maternity clothing, Clary & Peg, a London-based label, have gone that extra step further and ensured that each of the pieces in their collection is breastfeeding-friendly as well. Which means that you can invest in a pretty dress or stylish jumpsuit during pregnancy that accommodates your growing bump whilst knowing you'll ...

Can we talk about that awkward transition that happens with your wardrobe when you go from pregnant to breastfeeding? All the comfortable, beautiful dresses you might have worn in pregnancy no longer work for breastfeeding because you'd have to pull them all the way up and over your boobs, revealing everything below to anyone within sight. ...

The new Spring/Summer collection at Hatch -- for pregnancy, breastfeeding and beyond!

Have you guys seen the new Hatch collection? As always, it is effortlessly beautiful and perfectly on trend.

Earlier this season the team at Hatch sent over some pieces for Esther and me to test out and we thought ...

When you are pregnant, the best essentials are ones that save you time, keep you looking and feeling great, are comfortable (!), and keep you happy for those nine months no matter what. Our team decided to share a curated collection of 11 Essentials that all Pregnant Mamas should know about. And of course, we ...

I have recently been in touch with the lovely Aleksandra, founder and designer behind the new Polish label, Francis & Henry. Aleksandra is the eldest of eight children and a mama of two young boys (named Francis and Henry). Over email, we've bonded over our shared position as eldest in a big family and our many ...

One of my favourite clothing discoveries during this pregnancy has been the wonderful and handy basics bundle from Storq. The bundle, which consists of four wardrobe staples (a simple dress, leggings, skirt and tank) has just what you need for both practicality and comfort. I have been sleeping in the tank, doing yoga in the leggings, and wearing the dress ...

It's becoming a bit of a tradition -- our seasonal Hatch shoot :). But this time it was extra fun, because we now had a pregnant belly to show! Doesn't Courtney look too cute in those black overalls? I just love how Hatch makes clothes look so good on pregnant as well as non-pregnant ladies ...

Last week I made a quick trip over to Amsterdam for a team meeting and planning session. It was the first time I've seen Esther and Emilie since we were together in NYC for the ShopUp last September -- the longest we've gone without seeing each other since we became friends 11 years ago! Of course, arriving at ...

Last week when we were in NYC for the ShopUp, we met up with the talented team from Hatch and had a little photoshoot with some of our favourite pieces from the new Autumn/Winter collection. It was so, so fun to play dress-up in all the stylish clothes, and Esther and I had a blast ...

Whether you're running errands or going out on the town, and in fact whether you're pregnant or not, the clothes are easy to wear and flattering at the same time. The thing that's brilliant about ...

I'm not pregnant (promise!), but I still love wearing my two-tiered shift dress from In Pig, which I'm wearing in the blurry photo above. : ) In Pig have recently released this shift dress in new fabrics, and I'm loving the black and white ikat cotton version below. Isn't it beautiful? I love how comfortable and versatile it is ...

Have you heard of this custom in Finland? I just read this article and had to share it! Every baby born in Finland receives a box from the state full of clothes, a sleeping bag, accessories and toys. The box can then be used as a bed. Everyone receives it, so it has become part of ...

Every season here at Babyccino Kids we're eager to see the new Hatch collection -- just because we know it will be stylish, trendy, and oh so comfortable. I've first gotten to know Hatch when I was pregnant with Casper, and I've kept all their pieces after his birth and am still wearing them to this ...

Hatch is one of my favourite maternity fashion brands -- I love the way they design clothes that are wonderfully flattering and comfortable to wear during pregnancy, but also very much so beyond. I'm still wearing the pieces I bought when I was pregnant with Casper, and in fact, I just placed another little order ...

Tila is deeply, strongly and firmly in the “WHY WHY WHYYYY and WHY?” stage. She just wants to know everything in great details. And recently she asked me two questions that made me clear my throat. The first one was how did a baby get into my tummy and the second one was where exactly ...

We're nearing the end of summer... and we will miss it! Those juicy watermelons, the long days on the beach and the perfect picnics in the park. But, drinking hot chocolate after a long walk in the forest, and curling up cosy with the kids in front of the fireplace also has its charm! Seeing ...

Sending birth announcements is a wonderful tradition. Here in the Netherlands, one of the first things we do after a baby is born is to let the printer know what the name, weight and time of birth of the baby is so that the birth announcement can be printed and sent out as soon as ...

I loved wearing Hatch clothing when I was pregnant. It is such a cool and stylish collection, and the pieces are so easy to wear and care for. I loved it so much, that after my pregnancy I continued to wear the pieces, which made the initial investment of getting them so worth it! This ...
